Can you tell me the story of the Yogi who visited Sai Baba with Nanasaheb Chandorkar in Chapter 23?

📖 Chapter 23

Chapter 23 of the Sai Satcharitra recounts the tale of a practitioner of Yoga who, despite his deep study of the Yoga Shastras, could not achieve Samadhi. He sought Baba's grace, believing the "King of Yogis" could help. However, upon seeing Baba eating simple bread and onions, a doubt arose in his mind about Baba's spiritual stature. As detailed in this chapter, the omniscient Sai Baba immediately perceived his doubt and made a pointed remark about only those with strong digestion being able to eat onions. This comment startled the Yogi, who then surrendered with true devotion, had his doubts cleared, and left happily with Baba's blessings and Udi.
